What shots do you take during ED Cycle???

I keep reading that people are still getting med injections even when they are using ED for a cycle. I guess i am worried as my FSH was high and they claim they think my egg quality has dropped over night to poor. Will this affect me carrying using ED? Mind you the clinic I went to was horrible and we are starting with a new clinic in June. I am hoping to update you all soon...

Rachel,
Most people are on lupron shots for a few weeks prior to the ET. Many people use PIO or PEO which is a progesterone in oil shot as well. Some people use progesterone suppositories or pills instead.

That's it.... minimal as far as how many shots. However, I am still on PIO shots and I started them on April 14th. It is all worth it though, as I am almost 6 weeks pregnant!

Good luck and keep us posted on what's going on with you.... come join the Donor sperm & egg thread!

Rachel,

I was on lupron for nearly 2 weeks and now I am getting ready to start Del Estrogen injections which I get every 3rd day. I also take a baby asprin every day. After my transfer, I will be doing PIO (progesterone in oil) shots.

DE is a breeze compared to IVF using your own eggs. No stimming involved!
